Local Government (Scotland) Act 1975
Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.
Change 1
1B Draft valuation roll and draft valuation notices
(1) Before making up a valuation roll under section 1(1), an assessor must— (a) publish a draft of the roll, and (b) send a draft valuation notice to each person who is a proprietor, tenant or occupier of lands and heritages entered in the draft valuation roll. (2) A draft valuation notice is a notice setting out— (a) the details included in the entry for the lands and heritages in the draft valuation roll, (b) the effect of subsections (3) and (4), and (c) such other information as— (i) the Scottish Ministers may specify in regulations, or (ii) the assessor considers appropriate. (3) A person who receives a draft valuation notice may make representations to the assessor as to the details to be included in the entry for the lands and heritages in the valuation roll when it is made up under section 1(1). (4) When the assessor makes up the valuation roll under section 1(1), the assessor may include details in an entry for lands and heritages which are different to those included in the entry for the lands and heritages in the draft valuation roll, whether as a result of representations made under subsection (3) or otherwise (but see also section 1(3A) and (3B)). (5) Regulations under subsection (2)(c)(i)— (a) may make different provision for different purposes, (b) may make incidental, supplementary, consequential, transitional, transitory or saving provision. (6) Regulations under subsection (2)(c)(i) are subject to the negative procedure.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
